Probabilistic two-phase flow map pressure drop and void fraction models are developed for 6-port
microchannels in order to provide a more accurate and common means of predicting void fraction and pressure drop.
The models ...

The purpose of this study was to observe refrigerant behavior in flattened copper
tubes. A round, smooth tube with an internal diameter of 8.91 mm is taken as the base
case. This tube is then successively flattened to ...
